I have been inspected by Beebase before....,..some years back. What you don't understand is, that my first EFB email was a long time back.....the second over two weeks ago! I have not been told a date for any inspection. They MUST have been in my area from the offset? We are now in the...

I deal in cryptocurrency, but not in DASH. They do run an efficient open-source blockchain algorithm though, so are worth a look in the rather depleted market at the moment? :geek:

:censored:

Yep.....I I for one will now end my 'wittering' on the EFB subject now :sleep:

One hive.....a colony of bees.....plus related equipment. £1000 tops? Equipment-wise, I have Fifteen Paradise hives, 12 new Abelos, 15+ Nucs and a fair amount of old wooden nationals. I have two swienty suits, plus loads of other PPE. My yearly spending on 'consumables' is pretty high. For...

I know who Beebase are, but if it is not compulsory to sign up to them, how could they claim a legal basis , through DEFRA, to demand the destruction of private property? I look forward to that court case. I also note that you say 'we.' I think it might be time to 'De-We' myself from a...

I see about ten hives from the train at a private house two miles from me and know that there are about five hives near the canal, about a mile away. Are they registered with Beebase? Who knows! Beebase certainly give me no detailed information, that's for sure. Yes.....who told Beebase that...

Yes.....and what if Beebase decides to contact people on here, who are not registered with them?

I got an email over a month ago. I was told I would be inspected. I did a full check and found nothing. I reported back to them and was told I would still be inspected. Fair enough. The problem is they HAVE NOT inspected. In the mean time I received YET ANOTHER email telling me that there...

I was down at the farm yesterday. I had packed nuc to move into a hive and wanted to break down my hive builder, as it is so huge. It consisted of two brood boxes and three supers. All of them were rammed full of bees, brood and honey. The top super is unfortunately made up of some frameless...

I am a bit worried about this 'registry section' and have done nothing yet. Am I the only one who's just a tad worried/paranoid about all of this? After all, my main apiary is under The Sword of Damocles' due to Beebase and their EFB alerts. If I had not 'done the right thing' there, I would...

This is down to you at the end of the day though? Well done Mark, you're doing a great job, in difficult circumstances and winning! :laughing-smiley-014

I have a Swienty Breeze. Nice and cool and only been stung wearing it due to my own stupidity! :rolleyes: They are a bit bulky and heavier than some suits, but do fold into their hoods.

Looks promising in Birmingham, though slowed up this week I think, due to the weather becoming cooler.

Are they still making them? It's a pain trying to find a veil that fits under my top hat.....

I wondered about that. JBM's 'witterings' aside, I noticed a member who was leaving has had their post removed?

Count yourself lucky. I have been a member for many years. In that time my local association messed up and I found one year they took the money but did not sign me up. This year, because the BBKA made a mistake that I pointed out, they sent my subscription and insurance money back. If that...

I'll keep my 'wittering' as short as possible. I sold an item on Ebay. The customer sent the money and I had the item packaged and ready to go. I then got a message from Ebay saying that they had intercepted the payment, by not allowing PayPal to let me have the money until I sent the item...

All very well until they decide to hold your money back, based on a third party telling PP that you have not pleased them in some way!
